Hi Liz, I know there were many CAMERON's and McKINNON's in the Argyle/Inverness area. I am just tyring to pin-point it to one small area and to the correct connections between my McKinnon and Cameron. Do you know whether your William McKinnon had any brothers or sisters? Say a Janet or a Christina? I have a Charles Cameron marry a Christina McKinnon and had a daughter Christina Cameron b.c.1816 who married Archibald HENDERSON. Any connection with these?

However, "Moid" is a "degree of greatness." "Moine" is peat or moss. Take your pick. Moy in Kilmallie (Argyll) is indeed the one between Strone and Gairlochy. The one between Craigbeg and Moy Lodge is, in the Parish of Kilmonivaig (Inverness-shire). Both are in Cameron country. Although there is another Moy (a Parish) east of Loch Ness which is MacKintosh (note the K) country. Best Wishes Les

Hi Everyone I have just come across two towns/villages by the name of "Moy" in the 1985 Bartholomew Road Atlas of Britain (in the Argyle area) First question - What does Moy mean? Second question - If my Cameron's came from Moy, Kilmallie which is more likely - would it have been the Moy between Strone and Gairlochy, or from Moy, between Craigbeg and Moy Lodge on Loch Moy along Glen Spean? Does this second Moy, along Glen Spean, belong to a different clan area? Thank for any help in this matter. Kind regards Heather. NSW.

Hi List I am wondering if there is someone out there who can give me a rough date for the Rev MCLEOD from Fiunary who moved to Glasgow with some of his congregation pre 1854. If he joined St Columba's Church in Glasgow .. can someone give me an idea of where that is in terms of address and parish or suburb? Thank you for any info that you can supply. Anne Maye in Oz.

Interested to know if anyone knows the names of any of the children of Donald LIVINGSTONE (1728-1816) of Savary, Morvern, ARL, Sct and his wife Kate McINNES. It was this Donald LIVINGSTONE who saved the STEWART Banner at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. This is probably the Donald LIVINGSTONE listed in the 1779 Duke of Argyll's census as: ------------------------------------------ Duke of Agyll's 1779 Census Donald LIVINGSTON[E], tenant and family, 6 males, 4 females, Savary ------------------------------------------ My gt gt grandfather was Adam LIVINGSTONE, the miller at Savary around 1820, who would appear to be a descendant of this group. I am looking for any connections or information with possible links to the LIVINGSTONE families in this part of Morvern, ARL, Sct. Daryl Povey (Ballarat, Australia)

I am still trying to trace various family members. My grandmother Agnes Young Kelshaw , nee Livingston, was born in Kilfinian, Argylshire in 1870. She was the last child of her mother Jean Hunter Livingston. Her mother died shortly after her birth. Her father remarried five years later to Christina MacLean. My grandmother was raised by her stepmother whom she adored. Christina MacLean Livingston bore eight children, John, Christina, Jeanie, Margaret, Anne, Robert, Emma, and Archie. I am trying to find these half-siblings of my grandmother, all of whom were considerable younger than her. The last three being age mates of my grandmother's children. I beleive that one of the younger half-sisters married a Stuart, and another married a Weir. Likewise, I am trying to find their children. I have pictures of the Weir bothers. One of whom John Weir was in the Royal Canadian Navy during WWII and the other I believe was I merchant sailor. In a letter, John mentions their cousin Robert Stuart who was captured at Dunkirk. John also mentions an Uncle Bob who is a gardener at Ardishaig. I''m not sure whether Uncle Bob is a Weir or a Livingston. These are the only clues that I have. I hope that these will give some leads so that I can find my cousins or their children. Thanks Keith Thomas
